Reid closed with 25 points (10-17 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 113-106 win over the Rockets.

Reid has adjusted well to being a full-time starter due to the absence of Karl-Anthony Towns (knee), and the versatile forward is going through a career-best stretch in recent weeks. He's scored at least 20 points in three of his last five appearances. He's averaging 18.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and a combined 2.1 steals-plus-blocks per game since moving to a full-time starter role on March 16.

Davis had 21 points (10-20 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-4 FT), 12 rebounds and one assist over 28 minutes during Tuesday's 128-111 win over the Raptors.

The Lakers were up 21 points heading into the fourth quarter, otherwise, Davis might have seen more court time and posted even better numbers. He still delivered his 60th double-double of the season and his seventh straight, and Davis has averaged 26.3 points, 16.3 boards, 2.7 assists, 1.9 blocks, 1.0 threes and 0.9 steals during the streak. Though Tuesday's game represented the front end of a back-to-back set, head coach Darvin Ham said after the win that he expects Davis to be available for Wednesday's matchup with the Wizards, per Jovan Buha of The Athletic.

Sabonis amassed 22 points (8-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-10 FT), 20 rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 109-95 victory over the Clippers.

Sabonis came one assist shy of a triple-double as he recorded his 71st double-double of the season, which is nine more than Nikola Jokic. The shorthanded Kings will be limping into the playoffs, but expect a big workload ahead from Sabonis as the Kings try to improve their seeding.

Allen totaled 21 points (8-11 FG, 5-6 FT), 12 rebounds, five assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Tuesday's 129-113 victory over the Jazz.

Allen and Evan Mobley took care of Utah's frontcourt with ease and out-rebounded the Jazz 32-26. The standout center is suffering through some variance with his stat lines, but he's managed three double-doubles over the past six games.

Jordan accumulated two rebounds in six minutes during Tuesday's 110-105 win over the Spurs.

Jordan played just six minutes in the win, continuing to serve as nothing more than a depth piece. As long as Nikola Jokic is on the floor, Jordan has no fantasy value outside of situational streaming.

Jokic recorded 42 points (18-32 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 16 rebounds, six assists, two blocks and one steal in 38 minutes during Tuesday's 110-105 win over the Spurs.

Jokic tied his season high in points with 42 despite Victor Wembanyama's nine blocks. As the Nuggets look to secure the top seed in the Western Conference, Jokic has notched seven double-doubles in his last eight outings. If Jamal Murray (knee) remains sidelined, the superstar center's increased scoring outputs will likely continue.

Wembanyama ended Tuesday's 110-105 loss to the Nuggets with 23 points (9-29 FG, 2-11 3Pt, 3-6 FT), 15 rebounds, eight assists, nine blocks and one steal over 34 minutes.

Despite missing Devin Vassell (foot) and Keldon Johnson (foot), Wembanyama nearly led San Antonio to victory over the defending champions. The rookie phenom has recorded a staggering 22 games with at least five blocks. With Wembanyama's all-around offensive skill set and shot-blocking prowess, he is a strong candidate to record the first quadruple-double since David Robinson.

Kessler won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Cavaliers due to a nasal fracture. He will end the contest with six points (3-3 FG), one assist and one block in nine minutes.

Kessler left Tuesday's contest with 5:22 remaining in the second quarter after being hit in the face and has been ruled out for the remainder of the game. In his absence, Omer Yurtseven will likely receive increased playing time. Kessler's next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with the Clippers, though if he's cleared to play, he'll likely have to wear some kind of mask to protect his nose from further damage.

Holmgren tallied 22 points (7-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds, two blocks and one assist over 29 minutes in Tuesday's 109-105 loss to Philadelphia.

Holmgren connected on a trio of threes while recording a team-high-tying pair of blocks and posting a team-best scoring mark in a 20-point performance. Holmgren, who ended three boards shy of a double-double, has made at least three threes in 18 games this season, surpassing the 20-point mark on 21 occasions. The rookie has now recorded at least 20 points and six rebounds in two of his last three outings.

Embiid (knee) posted 24 points (6-14 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 12-12 FT), seven assists, six rebounds and three steals over 29 minutes in Tuesday's 109-105 win over Oklahoma City.

Embiid had missed the 76ers' previous 29 games while rehabbing from meniscus surgery on his left knee, and though he had been listed out heading into Tuesday, he was ultimately upgraded to available shortly before the opening tip. Though he finished below his season-long average of 33.9 minutes per game, Embiid still saw a healthy workload in his return and produced well across the board, aside from the lack of blocked shots and three-point production. Assuming Embiid's knee is feeling fine after Tuesday's outing, he could see a slight uptick in his minutes during the 76ers' next game Thursday in Miami.
